Nick Stokes: [as they are reviewing video surveillance] Looks like Raymond was disposing of the bodies for your client. You think he ran out of time before he could move Kim's out? Dr. Phillip Gerard: Or Ray was disposing of them for himself. You've just supplied Tom Haviland with reasonable doubt. Nick Stokes: No. What I showed you on video is Ray in the casino during the time the murders were committed. Dr. Phillip Gerard: His zeal is clouding his judgment. It's not what did happen; it's what the jury will believe could have happened.

Gil Grissom: [to Gerard] What happened to you? You were a pioneer in forensic science. How many bad guys did you put away in Hennepin County? Dr. Phillip Gerard: My share. How many innocent men have been locked away since then because of sloppy investigating shortcut forensics? Gil Grissom: You look for mistakes in any lab, you'll find them. Dr. Phillip Gerard: I shouldn't be able to, Gil. Gil Grissom: Humans are fallible. Dr. Phillip Gerard: Not this fallible: compromised blood, sweetheart deals... Gil Grissom: No, no, no, no. You're subverting good evidence. These are good people. Dr. Phillip Gerard: The accused is entitled to the best defense possible. Gil Grissom: The accused is entitled, yeah. He's a movie star, that's why he's entitled. He's killed two women. You know it. But you're willing to decimate these CSIs so that you can spoon-feed a jury into letting him walk. Dr. Phillip Gerard: A jury believes me because of my reputation just like they do you. Gil Grissom: The difference is, Philip, I get the same paycheck regardless of what I testify to. Dr. Phillip Gerard: I'm saying this as a friend. For the reputation of CSI, tell the D.A. to drop this, re-file down the road. Gil Grissom: What about the victims' families? Who's their friend? [Gerard doesn't answer] Gil Grissom: My guys will see you in court.

Dr. Phillip Gerard: [to Grissom] You're not running evidence. Or have you changed your mind? [Grissom doesn't say anything] Dr. Phillip Gerard: By the way, tell your mother I say 'Hello' next time you talk. I was so impressed that night we all had dinner. The sign language... how you interpreted for her. Fluid, didn't miss a beat. Gil Grissom: What'd you do, subpoena my doctor? Dr. Phillip Gerard: Knowing your genetic predisposition for hearing loss? Gil Grissom: You've become a bottom feeder, Philip. Dr. Phillip Gerard: Your work is dependent upon your five senses. The fact that you're losing one of yours wouldn't bode well for any evidence you introduced. Gil Grissom: You know, all those years I worked for you, you never got to know me at all, did you?
